About Us

We help professional services firms and small business owners maximize their profits by providing expert bookkeeping, effective tax planning, proactive CFO advisory, and cutting-edge tech consulting services.

Our Story

CFO Lifeline originated in Port of Spain, Trinidad, where our founder, Richard Oliver, identified a significant challenge faced by local businesses. Most businesses were operating with outdated systems and lacked access to real-time financial information.
Observing that many entrepreneurs made crucial business decisions based on emotion and gut feeling rather than informed insights, Richard was driven to redefine the traditional accountant-client relationship.
This led to the creation of FirstLink Business Solutions which transformed bookkeeping into a strategic partnership that provides real-time financial insights and personalized financial guidance.
Following its success inTrinidad, the need for such services was recognised as universal prompting the expansion to the United States with the launch of CFO Lifeline.
Our mission is to support forward thinking business owners across North America, ensuring that their decisions are well-informed, their strategies are robust and their businesses are positioned for sustainable financial growth and success.
